Hi Wendy. I am pretty ne at this too.I don't know if cancer is part of PCOS but at the same time I was finally diagnosed with it they found precancerous cells on my cervix.But don't worry about it too much because if you get regular paps they will detect it and either burn or freeze them off. Do you feel really tired all the time?I'm trying to get pregnant and it seems impossible.My hairgrowth isn't that bad yet. A little on my neck I keep waxed and a couple strays on my chin. And the most important thing is exercise to maintain your weight so there is no more gain. And i guess its not just the weight, its the more at risk you are of getting diabetes,heart disease and so on if you don't watch your weight. Not what other people think about your weight. And it does help a bit with fatigue. And also you'll find it's takes a little bit to see a specialist.

Thanks chat at ya later carisa
